3-2 downshift vs 2-3 up
I think we have a seperate solonoid for 3-2 downshift and 2-3 up. My 2-3 up is perfect, no limiter, no slip at all. if i'm cruzing at 60mph and go WOT it will slip a tad going in 2nd(almost feels like turbo lag) Could this be a hanging solonoid or is harder for a 4l60 to hold the power when downshifting? Its always done this since I had my converter installed. approx 10k miles.

Yeah, my 4th to 2nd downshift is wayyyy sloppy the closer I get to hitting the top of 2nd the worse it is...ex: 60mph the downshift is fairly tight...70mph it will slip big time and hit the rev-limiter on occasion. Anything over 70mph will only net you a 4th to 3rd downshift(3.23's) and feel pretty sluggish, so at 70mph with 3.23's you are hitting the very top of 2nd gear when you go WOT.

your transmission

maybe you should have someone look at the overrun clutches inside the trans
i bet they are burned
just a thought
